Family members of missing University of Washington student, Marizela Perez, will be holding a Benefit Open Mic Concert: Magiging Maayos at the Ethnic Cultural Theater in hopes of further funding the search.

Magiging Maayos is tagalog for “be well”, which is part of the tattoo Marizela Perez had on her arm. This concert will not only help fundraise but also spread the idea that regardless of any one person’s situation “all will be well” and we will continue to spread this information in hopes it reaches Marizela Perez and others who might need it.

Marizela Perez went missing Saturday, March 5th, 2011 and was last seen 2-3PM at the Safeway in the University District. It has been well over a month and no news of her disappearance has surfaced. The funds raised in this event will go directly into funding search teams, private investigation, and spreading the news.

The concert will have live music, spoken word, dances, and different speakers from the University of Washington Seattle Campus, but will also be open to the audience if they want to perform or say a few words. There will be a silent auction before and during the event with amazing art created by Marizela herself. Other organizations will be selling different things and a portion of their proceeds while help the Perez family. There will also be a raffle.

Doors will open at 6:30PM
The show will start at 7:00PM

The price is a sliding scale of $5-$10.

On behalf of the Perez family, we hope that you can come to this event and help support in any way possible or by inviting others to attend.
